PROCESS

Using black
adhesive vinyl over the walls, floor and ceiling of the room, I will depict an outer-space scene inspired in images of
microchips. I will "enlarge" the micro world of computer electronics
and “reduce” the macro-cosmos to the size of the gallery space. The installation
will seem like a black hole in the corner of the room that sucks in the
space-time mesh where urban looking, three-dimensional objects will be placed.
Using complex perspective techniques,
this spatially transformative mural will create the effect that the gallery boundaries
have been erased. Low and spaced sounds developed by sound
designer Gilberto Castillo will be part of this immersive mural.
The installation will enable forms of collaboration among sciences,
philosophy, music, art and sound design. Six sessions will be held during the
exhibition period where guests will host lectures, performances and
interventions around the ideas addressed in this project. (View Public Programming)
A scale model was developed in
order to have full control of the space and the way the image will take over.
The visualization found in this project provides an idea of how the space will
be managed; nevertheless it is subject to changes.
